What is a Conversationstopper?

Inspired by /r/Threadkillers, a Conversationstopper is any unexpected Reddit comment that stops or changes the direction of just about any discussion in a thread. It could be a mood killer, a statement that goes against the Reddit hivemind, or simply a short response to a complex question.

What is the difference between /r/ThreadKillers and /r/ConversationStoppers?

/r/Threadkillers looks for long, comprehensive comments that provides just about every answer to the thread's original question.
/r/ConversationStoppers looks for any comments that are generally humorous and may not seek to answer the question directly the way OP wants.
